Western Factory.
This mysterious and profound force was managed by the emperor himself. The eunuch Lu Yun, who was in charge of the Imperial Household Department, was the commander-in-chief of the Western Factory.
This Western Factory was specially authorized by the emperor and had the power to execute first and report later. They did many things that they shouldn't have been involved in, and they would infiltrate various places to monitor you.
In recent days, the Western Factory has begun to spread gradually.
They secretly recruited many masters, most of whom were honest people, and they came from the palace masters, the royal guards and people from the underworld.
Of course, what these people in the underworld require is that they must be loyal and have a certain level of strength.
This way it will be easier to get things done.
However, it was somewhat difficult to win over these Jianghu people. However, Lu Yun spread the word that if anyone could come to their West Factory, they could join them.
Then he can get guidance from a grandmaster, which will enable him to improve his martial arts more quickly.
This immediately attracted many people in the martial arts world! Grandmasters were the faith of many martial artists. In their eyes, Grandmasters were like gods.
It is an honor to be able to receive the command of a grandmaster and become his apprentice.
Now, all you need to do is join the Western Factory to gain the recognition of the Grand Master. Why not do it?
More importantly, they could also get a lot of silver every month. Working for the emperor, they would definitely get a lot of silver.
This amount of money is even more than that of many first-rank officials.
People die for money and birds die for food. Not only can they get generous rewards, but they can also have such great power. Who wouldn’t be confused after seeing this?
In a teahouse in Shangjing City.
"Hey, have you heard? Our Majesty has set up a brand new agency called the West Factory!"
"I heard that recently, many Western Factory experts wearing those special flying fish suits can be seen on the streets!"
"Just now I saw a group of people from the Western Factory passing by. They were wearing flying fish uniforms and holding knives. It looked like they were going to arrest an official from the Ministry of Rites. I don't know what he had done wrong."
"Who knows? Anyway, we are just here to watch the fun."
"I heard that this Western Factory is more than it seems. Have you heard? People are coming and going in the Western Factory's government office every day."
"Moreover, this group of people are very good at disguise. They will hide in the streets and alleys. Their traces can be found throughout the Great Zhou!"
"I heard that the emperor was frightened by Marquis Wenxin and felt that such a rebellion could not happen again in the Great Zhou.
If he finds any clues, he will immediately have the people from the Western Factory extinguish them. He is terrified!"
“…”
Indeed, in just half a month, the Western Factory has become a shadow in the minds of many people, and its power is growing larger and larger!
However, the benefits brought about by this are also obvious. For the empress, the emergence of the Western Factory not only solved her doubts, but also made power more centralized.
The people from the Western Factory are really good at collecting evidence and clues, much better than the empress's shadow guards.
Of course, what is more important is that the Western Factory exists both openly and secretly.
With the emperor's permission, they can do anything. They can be said to be unscrupulous, but they can also restrain themselves well because Lu Yun is behind them!
And Ye Jiajia.
Western Factory Yamen.
Ye Jiajia looked at her subordinates coldly and shouted at them, "I'm telling you, do your job well. Also, don't do whatever you want!"
"West Factory, the Emperor has indeed given you great power, but you must use it with caution and not go around bringing bad things upon Eunuch Lu."
"I'm telling you today that as a Grandmaster, it's easy for me to kill you, and it's also easy for me to find you.
So, don’t let me feel that you have done something wrong, otherwise it will be terrible.”
“…”
During this period, Lu Yun was busy, but he did not have the opportunity to stay by the emperor's side.
She was busy all day long, and at night she had to come to the emperor's side to serve his concubines.
It can be said to be very busy!
But he also enjoyed it, as his indestructible waist finally came in handy.
He was indeed very tired.
Sometimes during the day, he still needs to serve Ye Jiajia.
Fortunately, Ye Jiajia cares about herself and sometimes shows a little sympathy.
After this period of time under the governance of the Western Factory, some ministers in the court have become numb.
As for the emperor, she was also very happy.
These ministers were all bullied by the people from the Western Factory and dared not speak.
In the main hall today.
Many ministers finally couldn't bear it anymore.
"Your Majesty! The Western Factory is truly too arrogant. We know that this force was established specifically for Your Majesty!
They are there to serve as eyes for Your Majesty, but Your Majesty, they are now too arrogant."
"That's right, Your Majesty. We ministers are suffering terribly. Sometimes what they do is really too extreme. They seize the slightest opportunity to make false accusations, leaving us breathless."
"Your Majesty, the Western Factory has indeed done a lot of good things, which has gradually exposed many officials. They are indeed disloyal to Your Majesty."
"But isn't this a bit too harsh? It's like taking advantage of some ministers' weaknesses and directly attacking them."
"Your Majesty! Please weaken the power of the Western Factory. If it is allowed to continue, it will definitely undermine your imperial power, Your Majesty!"
“…”
The entire hall became like a vegetable market, and many ministers expressed their opinions on this matter.
Liang Jing was thinking that if the Western Factory ever undermined her imperial power or the power of future emperors, she would definitely approve of it.
But now, he would never undermine the imperial power. First of all, this eunuch was the person he trusted the most.
Another thing is that the power of these people comes from the emperor’s own delegation. What is there to be afraid of?
They are just doing things under my name, which is equivalent to me doing the things myself.
If you want to know who is the most loyal person to the emperor in this world, it must be the eunuch, and among the eunuchs, he is the most loyal to himself!
It must be Eunuch Lu.
At this time, Lu Yun stood beside the emperor, without saying a word, watching them perform here!
I thought to myself, no matter what you say, there is no way I will be removed from this position so easily.
At this moment, the left prime minister Yang Zhong and the right prime minister Wang An actually stood up together. It was very rare for the two of them to talk about this matter together. They had always had different political views before.
